KH Earrings - Paopu Fruit

"If two people share one, their destinies become intertwined. They'll remain a part of each other's lives no matter what"

I've had the supplies to make these for a while now, and then after I made the earrings it's been a process to get satisfactory photos to post here. But it was enjoyable to make these. :3

Inspired by the paopu fruit from the Kingdom Hearts video games, these earrings are made from mother of pearl shell beads that are shaped like stars and topped off with a leaf bead. I thought that the shell beads were perfect for this, since the paopu fruit is native to the Destiny Islands and there's sure to be sea shells found on the beach there.

The leaves came in a package that included four different colors and I decided to use all of them, as you can see in the bottom pictures above.

If you're interested in owning your own pair of these super fun earrings, they're available in my etsy shop here: [link]
